BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Platelet Activating Factor (PAF), 1-0-hexadecyl/octadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glyceryl-3-phosphorylcholine, is an ether lipid produced by a variety of different cell types. Recent studies [Snyder, F., Ann. Rep. Med. Chem., 17, 243 (1982); Pinckard, R. N., et. al., J. Adv. Inflammation Res., 4, 147(1982); O'Flaherty, J. T., et. al., Clin. Rev. Allergy, 1, 353(1983); Vargaftig, B. B., et. al., J. Trends. Pharmacol. Sci., 4, 341(1983)] have shown PAF to be an important mediator of allergic disease. Included among the physiological processes in which PAF is implicated are aggregation of platelets, inflammation, smooth muscle contraction, pain and edema. PAF is implicated in asthma, respiratory distress syndrome, lung edema and other inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases.

The compounds of the present invention have proven to be specific inhibitors of the biological effects of PAF and are consequently useful for the treatment of asthma, anaphylactic and septic shock, psoriasis, bowel necrosis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, transplant rejection, thrombosis, stroke, cardiac anaphylaxis and cancer.

No. 679,790, filed Dec. 10, 1984, and Terashita, Z., et. al., Life Sci., 32, 1975 (1983). The above patent and applications describe the preparation of alcohols of formulas 2 and 17 in both the racemic and optically active forms. Consequently, the compounds of this invention can be prepared both as the racemates and as the individual R and S enantiomers.

In addition to the synthetic methods discussed hereinabove, many of the methods and procedures described in the aforementioned U.S. Patent and copending applications are applicable to the preparation of the compounds of this invention by one skilled in the art.

The compounds were tested for pharmacological activity as described in the following tests.

Platelet Activating Factor Antagonism in vitro

Platelet activating factor (PAF) compounds were evaluated as PAF receptor antagonists in vitro by measuring inhibition of PAF induced platelet aggregation. Platelet aggregation was measured by a modification of the method of A. Wissner, et. al., J. Med. Chem., 27, 1174, 1984.

Approximately 120-240 ml of blood were collected by cardiac puncture from unanesthetized male New Zealand White rabbits (Whaley's Summit View Farms, Belvedere, N.J.) with the use of 3.2% sodium citrate anticoagulant (1 part of citrate/10 parts of blood). All syringes and pipets were plastic. The blood was gently mixed and immediately centrifuged at 800 rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature to recover the platelet rich plasma (PRP). Platelet poor plasma (PPP) was prepared by centrifuging PRP at 2800 rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature.

Dilutions (1:3000) of PRP in Isoton diluent were made and platelet counts were determined on a Coulter Thrombocounter which was standardized with platelet reference standards (Interscience Platelet Control, Portland, Oreg.). PRP platelet counts were adjusted to 500,000 platelets/μl by the addition of PPP.

L-PAF was obtained from Calbiochem. A stock solution of 1-2 E-3M was prepared in 10% ethanol in water and serial working dilutions were made using phosphate buffered saline (PBS). 1-2 E-3M stock solutions of test compounds were prepared in 100% methanol and serially diluted in PBS. All solutions were made up in plastic tubes, stored on ice and protected from heat and light. Solutions were prepared fresh or frozen at -20° C. and used within 48 hours.

Incubation mixtures consisted of 400 μl PRP, 50 μl of PBS diluent or test compound and 50 μl of PAF agonist. More specifically, 400 μl of PRP was stabilized in a cuvette for 1-2 minutes at 37° C. in the aggregometer to achieve a stable baseline, then 50 μl of PBS or test compound, was added and incubated for 5 minutes before addition of the challenge concentration of PAF (final concentration of 5E-8M or 1E-7M, as determined from the dose response curve for PAF for that experiment). Aggregation was monitored for 5 minutes. Samples containing test compound or diluent were run simultaneously for comparison. Test compounds were initially evaluated at a screening concentration of 1E-5M. Those producing ≧50% inhibition of the magnitude of aggregation were then reevaluated in a dose response fashion (final concentrations 1E-7M to 5E-5M) and IC50 values were determined.

K_(i) values were also calculated in some cases from ##EQU1## where K_(i) =inhibitory constant

IC₅₀ =molar concentration of test compound which gives 50% inhibition

[PAF]=molar concentration of PAF used as challenges

EC₅₀ =molar concentration of PAF which gives 50% of maximal aggregation.

The recording equipment consisted of single or dual channel Chronolog aggregometers connected to dual channel 10MV full scale deflection Omniscribe chart recorders (Houston Instruments). The chart recorders were calibrated daily with the use of a suspension of Bio-Rad latex beads (S-X 12 400 mesh) which had a density slightly greater than rabbit PRP. The bead suspension was used to set the 0% light transmission mark and clear water was used to set the 100% light transmission mark. These limits defined a full scale deflection. The aggregation traces were analyzed by a digitizing method (C. Kohler and B. Zoltan, J. Pharm. Methods, 12, 113, 1984) with x, y coordinate data stored in a computer file. A suitable program computed parameters of interest such as the magnitude of aggregation.

In some experiments, washed platelets were used instead of PRP. Washed platelet suspensions were prepared as follows. PRP was centrifuged at 2800 rpm for 10 minutes to obtain PPP and a platelet pellet. The pellet was gently suspended and washed in calcium free, albumin free Tyrode's buffer, pH 6.3. The suspension was recentrifuged and the washed pellet was resuspended in normal Tyrodes' buffer (with calcium, but albumin free), pH 7.4. Platelet counts were adjusted to 500,00 platelets/μl.

The results of this test on representative compounds of this invention appear in Table I, II, and III.

Inhibition of PAF Induced Vascular Permeability Change in Guinea Pig Skin

Platelet Activating Factor (PAF) given intradermally, increases capillary permeability, and plasma proteins (e.g. albumin) leak from the vascular space into the interstitial fluids of the skin. If the albumin has been previously stained with Evans' blue dye, the lesion area can be visualized as a blue spot in the skin. A specific PAF antagonist inhibits the development of increased capillary permeability caused by PAF and reduces the leakage of proteins into the skin. Test compounds were evaluated for non-specific effects by monitoring their ability to inhibit or reduce a histamine induced increase in capillary permeability.

Test Solutions were prepared as follows: Evans' Blue Dye (Sigma E2129) was dissolved in saline to yield a 0.1% w/v solution. A 2 mg/ml stock chloroform solution of PAF (1-phosphotidyl, acetyl-O-alkyl; Sigma P9525) was diluted in saline to give final concentrations of 500 and 250 ng/ml. Saline dilutions were made fresh for each test. Histamine diphosphate solutions (Sigma H7375) were prepared by dissolving 10 mg in 100 ml of saline and diluting to 20 μg/ml with saline. Test compounds were dissolved in ethanol at 10 mg/ml and stored at -70° C. Injection mixtures were made by placing 10 μl of test compound solution into 1.0 ml of either the PAF solutions or the histamine solution.

The animals used were Hartley strain guinea pigs weighing 250-350 g, maintained with food and water ad libitum. The animals were shaved on their back and hind feet one day before use.

Each guinea pig was given an intravenous injection of 2 ml of Evans' blue dye solution into a foot vein. Immediately after, a series of six intradermal injections of 0.1 ml each were given, three on each side of the animal. They were: PAF 50 ng (0.1 ml of a 500 ng/ml solution); PAF 25 ng; and histamine diphosphate 2 μg. The left side injections contain 10 μg of test compound while the right side contain an equivalent amount of the ethanol vehicle to serve as a control.

Thirty minutes later the animals were killed by cervical dislocation and the skin reflected from the back. The lesion areas were approximated as the product of the largest diameter and normal diameter both in mm.

A test compound was considered active if it caused a 50% or greater reduction in the lesion area of the PAF injection which produced a control lesion closest to 100 mm² without altering the histamine induced spot. The results appear in Table IV.

Inhibition of PAF Induced Vascular Permeability Change in Mouse Skin

The rationale for this test is similar to the coinjection test in guinea pigs; however, the test compound was given intraperitoneally rather than coinjected.

Test solutions were prepared as follows: An 80 μg portion of PAF was dissolved in 40 ml of saline to yield a concentration of 2000 ng/ml. A 10 mg portion of histamine diphosphate was dissolved in 100 ml of saline to yield a concentration 100 μg/ml. Test compounds were dissolved in saline and given intraperitoneally (20 mg/kg) 1/2 hour before intradermal challenge with PAF or histamine.

The animals used were Hilltop ICR mice, shaved on their flanks one day before use. The mice were randomly assigned to treated and control groups and were given test compound or saline 1/2 hour before challenge. Each mouse was injected via a tail vein with 0.25 ml of 0.05% Evans' blue dye immediately before the PAF or histamine intradermal injections were made (0.05 ml each), one per side.

Thirty minutes later the animals were killed and the lesions areas measured as described above. Lesion areas in treated animals were expressed as a percent of the control lesions and an ED₅₀ (mg/kg) was calculated from an arcsine area vs. log dose transform. The results appear in Table IV.

PAF Induced Lethality in the Mouse

Test compounds were evaluated for their ability to prevent death induced by an intravenous injection of a lethal dose of PAF.

ICR mice were given test compounds intraperitoneally as described under Inhibition of PAF Induced Vascular Permeability Change in Mouse Skin, 1/2 hour before an intravenous dose of 100 μg/kg PAF in saline. One hour later the number of dead mice were recorded. Protection was expressed as percent survivors in treated group/percent survivors in control group. The results appear in Table IV.

The active compounds of the present invention may be orally administered, for example, with an inert diluent, or with an assimilable edible carrier, or they may be enclosed in hard or soft shell capsules, or they may be compressed into tablets, or they may be incorporated directly with the food of the diet. For oral therapeutic administration, these active compounds may be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups and the like. Such compositions and preparations should contain at least 0.1% of active compound. The percentage of the compound in these compositions may, of course, be varied and may conveniently be between about 2% to about 60% of the weight of the unit. The amount of active compound in such therapeutically useful compositions is such that a suitable dosage will be obtained. Preferred compositions according to this invention are prepared so that an oral dosage unit contains between about 1 and 250 mg of active compound.

The tablets, capsules and the like may also contain a binder such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; excipients such as dicalcium phosphate; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, potato starch, alginic acid; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; and a sweetening agent such as sucrose, lactose or saccharin. When the dosage unit form is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier such as a fatty oil.

Various other materials may be present as coatings or to modify the physical form of the dosage unit. For instance, tablets may be coated with shellac, sugar or both. A syrup or elixir may contain, in addition to active ingredient, sucrose as a sweetening agent, methyl and propylparabens as preservatives, a dye and flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor.

These active compounds may also be administered parenterally. Solutions or suspensions of these active compounds can be prepared in water suitably mixed with a surfactant such as hydroxypropylcellulose. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols and mixtures thereof in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms.

The pharmaceutical forms suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that easy syringability exists. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e.g. glycerol, propylene glycol and liquid polyethylene glycol), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils.

The compounds of this invention may also be administered directly to the airways in the form of an aeresol.

The invention will be further described by the following examples.

EXAMPLE 1 3-(Bromomethyl)phenyl phosphodichlorodate

The residue was distilled via a Kugelrohr (1 mm 80°-90° C.) giving 81 g of a colorless liquid. A solution of this material in benzene was stirred and oxygen bubbled in for 20 hours, then the benzene was removed, giving 87.5 g of the desired compound as a yellow liquid.

EXAMPLE 3 3-[[2-[(1-Hydroxy-4-methoxy-7-oxo-2,6-dioxa-8-aza-1-phosphahexacosyl)oxy]phenyl]methyl]-thiazolium, hydroxide, inner salt, P-oxide

A mixture of 225 g of glycerol, 259.28 g of benzaldehyde and 4.5 g of p-toluensulfonic acid was stirred under argon at reflux in toluene using a Dean-Stark trap for 5 hours, then cooled to 0° C. and 200 ml of petroleum ether added with stirring. The mixture was stored at 0° C. overnight, then the solid was collected, washed with petroleum ether and dissolved in 1300 ml of toluene. Enough sodium methoxide was added to neutralize the p-toluensulfonic acid, then the solution was washed with 1 liter of 1% disodium phosphate, dried and cooled to 0° C. After 2 hours the 145 g of white solid was collected, washed with petroleum ether and dried. A 125 g portion of this solid in 400 ml of dimethylformamide was added to a suspension of 39.94 g of 50 g of sodium hydride in 200 ml of dimethylformamide under argon over 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to 0° C. and 147.69 g of methyl iodide in 100 ml of dimethylformamide was added over 1 hour. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then water was added and the mixture extracted with ether. The extract was dried, the solvent evaporated and the residue crystallized from carbon tetrachloride/hexane, giving 60 g of off-white solid. A 50 g portion of this solid in 100 ml of ether was added over 15 minutes to 146.14 g of borontrifluoride etherate in 200 ml of ether under argon, to which had been added at 0° C., with stirring, a suspension of 10.26 g of lithium aluminium hydride in 800 ml of ether. This mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, then at reflux for 4.5 hours, then at room temperature overnight. A 500 ml portion of 10% sulfuric acid was added slowly. The ether layer was separated, washed with sodium bicarbonate, dried and evaporated to an oil. This oil was purified by chromatography, giving 27.58 g of a colorless oil. A 15 g portion of this oil, 22.59 g of n-octadecylisocyanate and 50 ml of pyridine was allowed to stand overnight, then poured into water and extracted with ether. The extract was washed with dilute hydrochloric acid, then dried and evaporated to an oil. The oil was crystallized from methanol/water, giving 35 g of white solid. A mixture of 30 g of this solid 3 g of 5% palladium on carbon, 120 ml of glacial acetic acid and 125 ml of methanol were hydrogenated in a Parr apparatus for 18 hours, then 10 drops of concentrated hydrochloric acid were added and hydrogenolysis continued for 3 hours.
